Randy Travis High Lonesome (Quiex, Record Club)
1991 Columbia Record Club (CRC) edition pressed on translucent black QUIEX virgin vinyl. Vinyl is excellent with a couple very light surface sleeve scuffs, nothing I can feel. Labels are excellent. Cover has cornerwear, light edgewear on top edge, and heavy ringwear.
If you’re not familiar with Quiex, it's like this: As CDs began coming on the scene in the 1980s, record companies started pressing Quiex II lps for primarily for radio stations. The idea was to show that vinyl was still king and sounded as good--or better--than CDs. MOST Quiex pressings were marked as Quiex that were shipped to radio. But if too many were pressed, they were packaged as regular LPs and those lucky enough to unknowingly buy them were then blessed with clearer sound! This translucent brown Audiophile beauty IS one of those pressings.
